Gas Clouds Over The Office

The woman with an intestinal disorder regularly deploys a flurry of chemical warfare spraying strong floral scents into the air to combat organic methane in its revolutionary struggle to break free of its oppressive confines. Her office broadcasts the smell of endless trench warfare.

You are just trying to earn money and get work done, but have to take in both the obnoxious fumes of perfume unleashed in secret hourly waves of attack and the relatively calmer methane blasts it strives to hide.
